Chicago, United States Infosys Portland Full time

Infosys Portland is a part of the family of brands that make up Infosys, which was ranked #3 in Forbes ‘”World’s best regarded companies”. Every day our team is part of a larger organization that our clients are proud to be associated with. Due to upcoming demand in our business and career progression, we are looking for individuals to join our team and make a difference for our clients.


OUR COMPANY

Infosys Portland partners with our clients to solve their most complex and challenging procurement and supply chain problems. We combine our specialist expertise with consulting rigor, leading technologies and proven services to get things done, deliver sustainable value and guide our clients into the future.


Headquartered in Sydney, Australia, we also have established offices in Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth; Singapore; Chicago, USA; London, UK; and Pune, India. We work with leading national and global organizations across the full spectrum of industries, in both the public and private sectors. A track record of delivering outcomes for our clients over more than 20 years ensures we have a strong reputation as a leading professional services firm specializing in procurement and supply chain.

Infosys Portland is a wholly owned subsidiary of Infosys, a global provider of technology, services and consulting, with US$14.9 billion in annual revenues and over 250,000 employees spread across the world. This backing and network provides our clients and employees alike with unlimited opportunities to achieve better outcomes working with Infosys Portland.


THE POSITION

We are currently recruiting a small number of leaders in our digital procurement practice. High performing procurement functions are enabled by technology and hyper-efficient operations so that procurement team members and their customers can quickly and easily do their jobs. Infosys Portland’s digital procurement practice helps clients with all aspects of digitalizing procurement regardless of the stage they are at, including:

  • Digital procurement strategy
  • Technology selection
  • Implementation optimization
  • Optimization / Remediation


We are the trusted advisors to our clients, which means we are technology agnostic, and we are not systems integrators. We help clients pick the right path, select the right technology, and optimize implementations (regardless of who is the systems integrator/implementer). We also help clients make the most out of their existing procurement technology, whatever that may be.


We are fortunate to operate in a great ecosystem that includes Infosys Portland’s broader procurement consulting and services practice as well as our Infosys parent companies/units who are working with many organizations in the region, a large proportion of whom need assistance with procurement technology.


We are looking for people who can provide true subject matter expertise and guidance to clients as they navigate their digitalization journey. To be able to do this, we would expect the following experience:


Procurement technology implementations. We need people with “scars” from previous implementations. Often the devil is in the detail, so we need people who have a true appreciation of what can go wrong as well as what works well


Technology and data. We don’t necessarily need true technologists or data architects, but we do need people who have worked in and around technology for many years. We need people who understand where and how technology can help, its limitations and how data is captured, stored and used


Process design. An understanding of procurement processes is key - how to identify and document existing procurement processes and how to design better processes


Other non-technology enablers. We all know that technology alone doesn’t solve anything. We need people with a holistic understanding of how non-technology factors are critical to success, such as policy, people and organization


In addition to the above, we need our leaders to be capable of using their expertise and experience to help grow the practice in North America by leveraging the Infosys ecosystem and/or developing opportunities independently, while growing and mentoring the team.


The way our people go about their work is very important to us, especially when it comes to our leaders. We need people of high integrity who are great listeners and who are collaborative and respectful while also being able to think critically and be willing to challenge both clients and us.

In our experience, people fitting the above descriptions are rare, but they exist and we think Infosys Portland is a natural home for such people as it will provide challenge, growth, and reward.


EDUCATION

  • Degree qualification in engineering, business, computer science, etc.
  • Post-graduate qualifications would be advantageous


EXPERIENCE & COMPETENCE NECESSARY

  • 6-10 years’ consulting experience in procurement and/or supply chain including system implementation experience
  • Proven experience managing own projects and leading teams
  • Strong business development experience and ability to generate new leads
  • Outstanding analytical skills
  • Excellent management skills with the ability to lead, grow and develop your team
  • Demonstrated people management skills, including coaching of both junior employees and client staff
  • Good facilitator and ability to develop a storyline for clients
  • Good PowerPoint and Excel skills


BEHAVIOURS & ATTRIBUTES

  • Integrity
  • Authenticity
  • Results and outcome oriented
  • Enthusiastic and able to drive own activities
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills


LOCATION

Headquartered in Sydney, Australia, we are seeking applications to join our established office in North America.
